More Old Photos

They are not on Jarret's website any longer. I asked why on this thread sometime back and did not receive any replies. Perhap David could be persuaded to host his own site. Wouldn't that be something?

 

Just sent you a PM Paul. Thanks for posting the wonderful photos! Keep'em coming!

Sorry, I need to correct that caption. (That'll teach me to post stuff late at night).
What I should have written was 'the original version of the 'low-buck' Chris Amon privately-entered 612 Can-Am '69 612P (pre-wing)'.
There was of course, prior to this second incarnation of #0866, a factory-entered 612P in late 1968, that carried wings and air brakes - from it's debut appearance at Las Vegas in November '68. I remember it well, from my slot car racing days. Because of it's overall width, and wedge shape, it was probably the most popular bodyshell used in the Sports/GT class at the time (though frequently sans wing).

 

If it's possible, I'm very interested by these scans. Can I send you my email? TIA

 

Please do. Anybody else who wants them, just PM me your email address - rather than clutter up the thread.

 

Hi,

I don't understand where this photograph was captured ? And where is 0748 here ?

OK, I read you, it's s/n 0748 TR but who is the driver ?

Thanks so much

Ferrari Can-Am: The purpose-built factory Ferraris were poorly supported. Once in a while a private entry modified endurance car achieved a mediocre finish on persistance.

Here are 2 photos from my Maserati related archive of now over 8,000 photos. Here we have Graham Hill in the Nuerburgring pits during practice. I assume its 1965?

Ciao!

1966 Can-Am Bridgehampton: Pedro and NART again. DNF. Photo by Robert Bohl from Racing Sports Cars. Pedro drove a similar 206S at Laguna, again without much success.

Thank you Paul for the pics. Here is another pic of the 612P early in 69.

Nurburgring shots of the 330P are 1964 with Graham Hill talking to Ronnie Hoare in the first one (drove a P2 in 1965).

When is the 300S book due?

 

Boudewijn,
its ready - but my editor is still busy doing the editing. 360 pages take a while!

Ciao!

On a quick view, the NART 512S looks a HELL of a lot like an Alfa T33!

 

Jarrett is now an administrator for the Ferrari Historic Challenge series and needed the space to post photos of that series. He has generously offered to help me post the pictures on my website. I am not much of a website designer.

 

David,

Surely one of the members has some experience in that area and would want to assist you. It would be a great resource.

Thanks a lot Gil. First time I see color shots of the side & wasn't aware of the blue wheels. I've to correct my model ;-)

 

Small correction
This photograph is taken at 4 hours of Forez 1955.
